page 313 It seems quite certain that the Samuels of Windsor, East Chester, and Flushing are one and the same, and we hare arranged them in accordance with that hypothesis. Their age coincides, . for Sam. of Flushing had a grandson b. in 1002, and was therefore probably born himself a little be fore 1650, while Sam. of Windsor was b. in 1647. The dates also correspond remarkably well. Sam. disappeared from Windsor in 1668, or the few years later; appeared in E. Chester in 1672, and removed from that place after Oct., 1682, but before May, 1686; and appeared in Flushing in 1683 or 1684. When he was a witness of marriages in 1678 and '79, he might have resided in E. Chester. There seems to have been, at least in later years, constant intercourse between Flushing and Westchester County; for two sons of Sam. of Flushing settled there, and yet were present at the marriages of their sisters in Flushing. There is also a remarkable coincidence of names. The eldest son of Sam. of Flushing bore his own name. His other sons and eldest dau. were Nicholas, Jonathan, David, John, and Susanna, just the names of the father, two brothers, uncle, and mother of Sam. of Wind sor. The name Nicholas furnishes strong circumstantial evidence, as that was so uncommon in the family.
